Thermoplastic elastomer
close Thermoplastic elastomer: a kind of elastomer that has the elasticity of rubber at normal temperature and can be plasticized at high temperature. Introduction to TPEE and specific application fields of SKYPEL (reference) TPEE is made by copolymerization of 1,4-butanediol terephthalate and polybutanol. Increasing its hard segment ratio can enhance physical rigidity and chemical stability, Increasing the proportion of soft segments can improve flexibility and low-temperature performance. SKYPEL is the trade name registered by SK Chemical Company for its engineering thermoplastic elastomer. It is a kind of ester system thermoplastic elastomers. Its softness and elastic resilience are similar to rubber, but its mechanical strength, heat resistance and weather resistance are better than rubber. The color is natural, transparent, and highly transparent. Without vulcanization engineering, it is the same as ordinary thermoplastic resin. The amount of copolymer in the soft chain segment is properly adjusted with the resin easy to form and process according to the common polyester synthesis method, so as to form soft and mechanical materials suitable for various purposes.
